I was bored and curious so put this together showing each teams average margin of victory and loss in conference games only. I also put each teams scoring differential in conference games only, each teams biggest win and loss and who that opponent was. Iowa has the highest average margin of victory, the 2nd lowest average margin of loss, and the highest scoring differential in big ten games. Differential is simply adding up how many points a team won by then subtracting the total of how many points they lost by. For example, Iowa won their games by a total of 170 points and lost games by a total of 43 points. I'm sure this isn't the correct way to look at this data, but that's how I did it. Couple surprises, then some not so surprising stats, like just how lucky Wisconsin continues to be.
